About Agriculture Agriculture in India has a significant history. Today, India ranks second worldwide in farm output. Agriculture and allied sectors like forestry and fisheries accounted for 16.6% of the GDP in 2009, about 50% of the total workforce. The economic contribution of agriculture to India's GDP is steadily declining with the country's broad-based economic growth. Still, agriculture is demographically the broadest economic sector and plays a significant role in the overall socio-economic fabric of India.

History The invention of agriculture is one of the great revolutions of human history. It includes the food production and domestication which led to significant changes in human society, population increase and biological changes. However, this revolution is best demonstrated at Mehargarh (Period-I Neolithic period) in which the sense of the revolution ultimately set the platform for the rise of urbanization in the Indian Subcontinent.[16] In the period of the Neolithic revolution (roughly 8000-5000 BCE.), agriculture was far from the dominant mode of support for human societies. But those who adopted it, have survived and increased, and passed their techniques of production to the next generation. This transformation of knowledge was the base of further development in agriculture. Vedic literature provides some of the earliest written record of agriculture in India. Rigveda hymns, for example, describe ploughing, fallowing, irrigation, fruit and vegetable cultivation. Other historical evidence suggests rice and cotton were cultivated in the Indus Valley, and ploughing patterns from the Bronze Age have been excavated at Kalibangan in Rajasthan. Bhumivargaha, another ancient Indian Sanskrit text, suggested to be 2500 years old, classifies agricultural land into twelve categories: urvara (fertile), ushara (barren), maru…...

The Functional Area of Business
Entrepreneurs launch businesses and take on risks for two reasons either to provide a service or to make money. Businesses with goals to provide a service and use surplus revenues to reinvest back into the company, are referred to as a nonprofit business. Businesses with the goal of making more money than they spend are referred to a for-profit business. Regardless of the purpose of a business, they always have a team to help with making decisions that drive the business. The teams may consist of human resources managers, operations managers, and financial accountants.
Human resources managers also referred to as HR members are on front line of most organizations. They are responsible for hiring, compensation, benefits, training, and support. Their job advertisement is what’s showcased, and reviewed by any perspective applicant looking to seek employment within the organization. Human resources managers are highly qualified to recognize superior prospects to fill a specific role. Managers sometimes attempt to fill positions within the company, but to ensure that a skilled professional is chosen the human resources manager skills should be used. “Managers who conduct interviews often have little or no training in the process. This lack of training seems puzzling given the strong evidence that managers often commit numerous errors during the interview process and in making......

In this paper I would like to consider one more time during this course the purpose of me going back to graduate school. In 1998 I graduated from Saint-Petersburg State Institute of Technology where obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering and Technology. After completion of study I started my career working at one of the biggest oil fields in the world operated by Chevron Company. During my first years of work I had a chance to be involved not only in specific tasks but in managerial activities also. At that time I started to feel that, being a specialist in my area of background I received, does not give me a feeling that this is my way I want to go forward during my entire life. Thanks God, soon, I got promoted to Facilities Engineering Department to Project Engineer position. Since that moment my project management career started.
During obtaining work experience by moving from project engineering positions in small projects to more managerial positions in bigger projects, I decided to obtain specific knowledge related to professional project management area. Since 2005 I entered to Project Management Institute Association and managed to obtain Project Management Professional certificate in 2012. PMP was quite challengeable for me and the real thing I proud of. This successful pass though was also like a definition of a new horizon to go forward obtaining Master of Business Administration degree. Why I decided to go to Business......

Sometimes they act as a “go-between” for employees and the upper management, they make sure that tasks are complete, and they also have obligations in the functional areas of the organization. This paper will discuss the role of managers within the functional areas of a business.
Functional Areas of a Business and the Managers Role
In a large company or organization, there will be several different departments, each having its own specific task or job to perform. These tasks or jobs are called the “function” of that particular department. According to the Business Dictionary, functional area is defined as
“grouping of individuals on the basis of the function each performs in the organization, such as accounting, marketing, and manufacturing; or grouping of activities or processes on the basis of their need in accomplishing one or more tasks” (BusinessDictionary.com 2014). Teachmebusiness.co.uk states that “the main purpose of functional areas is to ensure that all important business activities are carried out efficiently” (teachmebusiness.co.uk n.d.). The article also gives an outline of other functional areas in a business organization are:

Functional Areas of Business Paper
Understanding the importance of managers in today’s corporate world is crucial for an individual with a special interest in business management practices, especially if pursuing a Masters of Business Administration. According to Robbins and Coulter (2012), managers are important for three main reasons: organizations need their skills, they get things done, and they do matter. The responsibility of a manager is to coordinate and oversee that others are doing their work so that the goals of an organization can be accomplished (Robbins and Coulter, 2012), and to “ensure business success” (University of Phoenix, 2012). The manager’s efficiency and effectiveness when leading and overseeing the tasks needed to accomplish the organization’s goals will reflect in the functional areas of business.
Functions of Management
There are four functions of management: planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. This functions approach is the most popular used today, and managers address them “regardless of the order in which these functions are performed” (Robbins and Coulter, 2012, p. 10). Managers use their leadership to influence and inspire employees, participate in strategic planning to create plans, and ensure the objectives are completed (University of Phoenix, 2012).

CASE SUMMARY
The founding of Facebook is portrayed in the movie, “The Social Network.” The movie depicts the early years of Facebook, from the origin of the idea through its growth to a multimillion dollar company.
In the film, Mark Zuckerberg is hired by the Winklevoss Twins to help them design and program an idea they came up with. Mark decides to create his own version of their idea and begins to work on it with the help of his best friend, Eduardo Saverin. Shortly after, Mark’s version begins to be successful and the Twins realize what he has done and plan to prosecute him. Mark’s successful version also catches the eye of a wealthy entrepreneur, Shawn Parker, who invented Napster. The film continues with the involvement of Shawn in the company that Mark and Eduardo started.
It ends with the end of a friendship between Eduardo and Mark due to Mark knowingly tricking Eduardo in giving up most of his shares to the company and betraying a verbal agreement between the two. This situation is just one of the many large bumps in the road near the end of the film as the three main characters deal with many different situations on the road to success. The end of the film also shows Mark/Facebook being sued by the Winklevoss Twins for stealing their idea. Throughout the entire film, it is incredibly interesting to compare and contrast the personalities and......

The operation grew so rapidly that by 1945 after World War II the material haulers grew to 16 tractors and 36 trailers. Today Huffman employs more than 1300 personnel along with maintaining their own equipment that has amped up to 800 tractors and 2100 trailers.
